Mutts & Marshmallows

Back by popular demand for the 6th year, its nearly time to greet the New Year again with a a fun run with friends and a big mug of hot chocolate!

As always everyone who finishes the race gets a great mug, all the hot chocolate they can drink, and proceeds from the 'doggie dash' go to support the SPCA of Wake County.

There are 4 races to choose from! The signature event is the 5K Doggie Dash but there's also a regular 5K, 8K, and 1 Mile fun run.

The F&A Doggie Dash is also the first race of Fit & Able's 2019 Free-for-All Race Series.

Invite your friends and pick your race!
